WB

1/250. Detects a band of approximately 115 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 94 kDa).

Target

Function5'->3' double-stranded DNA exonuclease which may also possess a cryptic 3'->5' double-stranded DNA exonuclease activity. Functions in DNA mismatch repair (MMR) to excise mismatch-containing DNA tracts directed by strand breaks located either 5' or 3' to the mismatch. Also exhibits endonuclease activity against 5'-overhanging flap structures similar to those generated by displacement synthesis when DNA polymerase encounters the 5'-end of a downstream Okazaki fragment. Required for somatic hypermutation (SHM) and class switch recombination (CSR) of immunoglobulin genes. Essential for male and female meiosis.

Post-translationalmodificationsPhosphorylated upon DNA damage and in response to agents stalling DNA replication, probably by ATM or ATR. Phosphorylation at Ser-454, Thr-621 and Ser-714 is induced upon DNA-damage caused by treatment with hydroxyurea (HU) but not upon IR treatment. The HU-induced EXO1 triple phosphorylation facilitates destabilisation/degradation of the protein.

ICC/IF image of ab106303 stained HeLa cells. The cells were 100% methanol fixed (5 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab106303, 5µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was ab96899, DyLight® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/250 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM. This antibody also gave a positive result in 100% methanol fixed (5 min) HeLa cells at 5µg/ml.
